Conventional and Implant Oral Prostheses
Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1992Despite advances in preventive dentistry, many elderly persons present with several missing teeth replaced by oral prostheses of various kinds. An increasing number of prostheses are retained and supported by oral implants. Maintaining a complete dentition with fixed, removable, or implant-retained prostheses improves function and patient self-esteem ...

Micro implantable visual prostheses
1st Annual International IEEE-EMBS Special Topic Conference on Microtechnologies in Medicine and Biology. Proceedings (Cat. No.00EX451), 2000Two micro implantable visual prosthesis systems for blind patients are described. The first system is a retina implant which is based on an implantable microelectrostimulator applicable for patients suffering from retinitis pigmentosa or macula degeneration, and has been already successfully tested in animal experiments.

Extraoral prostheses using extraoral implants
International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2011The aim of this study was to evaluate extraoral prostheses and the use of extraoral implants in patients with facial defects. 10 cases were treated utilizing maxillofacial prostheses employing extraoral implants in five cases. 16 extraoral implants were installed. Seven implants were placed in irradiated sites in the orbital regions.

Speech Processing for Cochlear Implant Prostheses
Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 1984The transformation of speech into electrical signals which can stimulate the auditory nerve in order to create hearing sensations that carry speech information depends on many factors. These include the limitations imposed by the current state-of-the-art in otological surgery, mieroelectronic and micromechanical technology, and knowledge of the ...
